Number six: Reading in the hammock in the backyard. Oh what a wonderful, wonderful thing. I sure do love summer time and outsideness, but spending time in a hammock in a freshly mowed backyard with the sun shining down through the maple tree leaves makes me feel like there’s hope for perfection in this life. I lie there thinking that it can’t get any better than this.

Last weekend’s weather was awesome, so Logan and I got to experience some quality time in the hammock – several hours on Saturday and Sunday were spent reading and talking in our backyard. Now that is something that I really love. And lucky for me, tis the season for hammocks. You can bet your bottom dollar I’ll be repeating this experience many times in the next few months.
